Looks real nice! Are you planning on lowering it? It would set it off if you took out some of that wheel gap. Any issues running 315's on a 10.5 inch wheel? I thought about it...but, wasn't sure. The tire shop said they recommended the 295's. I may just have to change to 315's after I get rid of some rubber. Nice ride though!
